'90 Day Fiance': Brandon's family slammed for running dog breeding business, fans brand them 'animal abusers'

'Sad that the farm animals on Brandon's farm are loose but the poor dogs are in cages,' a user commented

'90 Day Fiance' Season 8 has returned with a set of new couples, of which Brandon and Julia seem to making the most noise with regard to how their storyline is shaping up. 

The boy works with a pest control firm and also pitches in at her parents' farm. One of their other businesses is breeding dogs. A clip shows Brandon petting the German Shepherds as they roam around in their cages, which fans thought was cruel. However, Betty and Ron seem more focused on how Brandon helps them out at the farm. Meanwhile, fans have called out the family for running a breeding business and some have even labeled them as "animal abusers".

"Sad that the farm animals on Brandon's farm are loose but the poor dogs are in cages," a user commented on the show's official Facebook page, while another posted on the same thread: "that was EXACTLY what I thought. I hate breeders. The goats and pigs have a better quality of life than those beautiful GetmannShepherds."

"As soon as they showed it, I pretty much am not going to watch it. HATE GREEDY BREEDERS," one pointed out while another shared: "as soon as I saw this I hated them for having the shepherds locked up! Dislike the parents already. To involved in their sons life." "Dog breeding business? Ugh get a real job, animal abusers. #90DayFiance," a viewer tweeted.  

In other news, Brandon and his folks are gearing up for Julia's arrival, whom Betty suspects of being a "call girl or a prostitute". But that's not where the real problem is. After Brandon was able to convince Betty that he loves Julia dearly and that she is only just a go-go dancer from Russia, she questioned him about the modes of birth control Julia has been using. 

He admitted to "having fun" and not being "careful" enough, which prompted Betty to set up an appointment with a gynecologist without Julia's knowledge or opinion. Even though Brandon didn't question Betty when she was making the call, in his confessional he said that she cannot make certain decisions for Julia.
